Subject: [PATCHv2 0/4] EDAC/altera: Address sashiko reviews part 1(v2)
Date: Thu,  6 Aug 2026 10:54:08 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260806155412.1518582-1-dinguyen@kernel.org> (raw)

Hi EDAC maintainers,

This is version 2 of the patch series that addresses some of the sashiko
reviews for the Altera EDAC driver.

I apologize for the lateness of this series, but I do believe these 4
patches are important enough to be included in v7.2 because they are
confirmed bug hits.

patch 1/4 : EDAC/altera: Add suppress_bind_attrs so driver cannot get unbound
While sashiko did not flag this specific feature of the driver, the
reviews caused me to look at the bind/unbind feature of this driver. The
unbind/bind feature will absolutely cause a system to crash because
during the bind, the driver sets a bit to clear the memory. We
absolutely cannot do this on a running system.

patch 2/4 : EDAC/altera: Drop __init from ECC setup paths for re-probe safety
For all the different child nodes of the main EDAC module, there is a
chance for deferred probing. If EPROBE_DEFER occurs, and these functions
that are marked with __init will be freed.

patch 3/4 : EDAC/altera: Fix code leak on dci allocation failure
The dci data structure is leaked if a devres_open_group() fails.

patch 4/4 : EDAC/altera: Fix use-after-free in error paths
The dci structure cannot be freed before the unregistering of the
interrupts.
